I wouldn't exactly count on any EX characters, as they're owned by Arika.

I know that, foo *smack*
Make it happen, Sony

 

[Xpliskin]

Edit:

Probably a hint from Ono with the chains on the can

Via FGC thread. The Skull also matches the Skull on Birdie's belt buckle

Sounds like a leak

 

[Sou Da]

Couldn't they easily make some Not!EX characters?

Spineomania etc.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Eagerly anticipating Stone Ocean's leotard inspection credential attempt

There will be a mandatory inspection, specially if she's not using the army issue Delta red leotard. Safety first!

 

[SnakeEyez]

Birdie?? Wow.... If this rumor is true idk how to feel. I'm happy Cammy is in but Birdie is a surprise to say the least.

 

[lupinko]

Birdie is Street Fighter 1.

But there were a ton of Alpha characters in sf4 also.

Alpha:
Sakura, Gen, Rose, Guy, Cody, Dan, Adon

3rd Strike:
Makoto, Yun, Yang, Ibuki, Hugo, Dudley

 

[FadedRevolution]

When was the first original character for SF4 announced? That was pretty early, right? If this is true, we've got 6 guys and zero originals.

What's the rush? The game isn't coming out for quite a few months they will reveal them.

 

[Red Arremer]

Tabloids don't make up stuff about fighting games they were invited to go see tbh

Yes. I'd say it's likely, but still I would take the info with a grain of salt.

[kodecraft]

Birdie likes BBW's with nice skin, comfirmed.

Shit, me too!

 

[Laputa_94]

If true this game is setting up for a great roster. All I want now is Makoto and Q then I'm set.

God damn it if they got the character designs back from whoever has it.

 

[Zyrox]

Birdie huh? Never played him but he's a huge dude and i love me my huge dudes in fighting games. Here's hoping he has some nice huge damage combos that'll match his appearance.

Cammy is whatever. Never cared for that character.

 

[Degen]

Alex will come soon.

There's only room for one Alex, and it's Birdie

 

[Inuhanyou]

Sakura, Karin, RMika.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA

 

[Neiteio]

"Birdie, however, is a huge chunks, skin to neatly and inserting a lot."

Well. Huh. Sounds kinky.

Hahaha, sounds amazing

 

[Reset]

Ken before either of them. But Cammy is cool too.

 

[lupinko]

Cammy is in because who else will Jamie Lee Curtis play?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I need my Man Eagle in this game. Cammy and Birdie are welcomed characters

 

[Ivan 3414]

Birdie needs a major redesign.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Yeah, sorry to say but I'm not feeling Birdie, I always thought he was pretty lame.

But if we HAVE to have a bird related character why not Eagle?

A party without Q isn't a party at all.

 

[Bob White]

Birdie would be a pretty cool addition but, the way he's described means another person with super slow walk speed. Let's hope Cammy can actually traverse the screen in a quick manner without command jumps and teleports.

 

[Greenzxy]

Probably a hint from Ono with the chains on the can

So if the can Ono teased was for Birdie, than that means: Cammy's new banana gameplay confirmed.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Sakura, Karin, RMika.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA

I'm on board.

 

[lupinko]

Birdie needs a major redesign.

So he'll become middle eastern now?

 

[Stone Ocean]

Birdie would be a pretty cool addition but, the way he's described means another person with super slow walk speed. Let's hope Cammy can actually traverse the screen in a quick manner without command jumps and teleports.

If all else fails there's always fullscreen Cannon Drills

Spoiler

Please don't do that ever in any game with Cammy in it

 

[kirblar]

Banana- it's for Birdie's mohawk.

 

[LuuKyK]

Happy that Cammy is in, even though I never doubted for a second that she would be cut. She is a staple character at this point.

 

[PirateKing]

Sakura, Karin, RMika.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA.

SAKURA, KARIN, RMIKA

Mokoto?

 

[Clawww]

So if the can Ono teased was for Birdie, than that means: Cammy's new banana gameplay confirmed.

i peel my bananas to cammy

 

[kobu]

Would have preferred to see new characters but I'm happy at least one grappler is confirmed.

 

[enzo_gt]

Birdie needs a major redesign.

Definitely one of the worst designs in the entire series. I sincerely hope at least the translation to 3D alone does him enough favours.

 

[Leafhopper]

Birdie though? As others have said, he needs a redesign for real.

 

[m_shortpants]

Well the London station stage had dudes with mohawks...Birdie seems like a good guess. I really don't want Cammy in the game but seems like she's popular I guess.

 

[Subaru]

I found strange the Haggar sign, why in London?
That's why...

 

[Khezu]

Birdie is not my first choice, but could be cool.

If they do redesign him, I hope he still keeps the mohawk.

 

[jbug617]

Banana- it's for Birdie's mohawk.

 

[Sanctuary]

New thread worthy, when it's already being discussed in the other?

 

[IntelliHeath]

Well the London station stage had dudes with mohawks...Birdie seems like a good guess. I really don't want Cammy in the game but seems like she's popular I guess.

It's no brainer to see Cammy being a part of initial roster for Street Fighter V. I have a good feeling that Juri and Alex are going to be on initial roster as well.

 

[Ferrio]

Yes Boss

 

[Hours Left]

I really wanted Eagle. *sigh*

 

[RM8]

They play nothing alike, but since I adopted Decapre and she's 500% guaranteed to never come back, I might try Cammy in SF5. Cool if true, I guess!

I really wanted Eagle. *sigh*

...I'd gladly trade these two for Eagle, though.

 

[Pop On Arrival]

Great, don't care about birdie. Bring back Seth! Fuck the haters.

 

[GodParticle]

Birdie is an awesome, underrated character. If they're gonna insist on bringing back previous fighters, at least use some under-used ones. Maybe r-mika can finally make a return to the ring

 

[Bishop89]

I'm fine with Birdie being included, he hasn't been around for a long time and I'm sure they can make him interesting. I'd rather have him than Gief or Hugo.

Not fine with Cammy though. Fuck Cammy.

Take that back! Cammy shall destroy you!

 

[Shadoken]

But there were a ton of Alpha characters in sf4 also.

Alpha:
Sakura, Gen, Rose, Guy, Cody, Dan, Adon,Rolento,Evil Ryu

3rd Strike:
Makoto, Yun, Yang, Ibuki, Hugo, Dudley

Way more Alpha actually.

 

[ShinMaruku]

I want Juri Goddamnit. But I also play Cammy so I'm half there.

 

[ElFly]

Immobile part makes me nervous.

Better have those dashing headbutts!

Fuck that. No Alex. SFV needs Alex.
